The Ledger
The publication began its journey on August 22, 1924, under the name Lakeland Evening Ledger. In 1927, it acquired its primary rival, the morning Lakeland Star-Telegram. By 1930, it became clear that Lakeland could only sustain one newspaper, leading Ledger Publishing Company to combine the two into a single morning edition called the Lakeland Ledger and Star-Telegram. In 1941, the Star-Telegram was removed from the title, and by 1967, the name was further simplified to just The Ledger.
